Sounds extremely strange. You should fill an issue. My Dell Latitude E7440 follows description and I believe same is true for most of the users. I have to start movement at least diagonally, once it catches further direction does not matter. It produces no output when running `libinput debug-events`. I've recompiled my version with 0% just to check. /* palm edges are 8% of the width on each side */ - mm.x = min(8, width * 0.00); + mm.x = min(8, width * 0.08); edges = evdev_device_mm_to_units(device, &mm); tp->palm.left_edge = edges.x; - mm.x = width - min(8, width * 0.00); + mm.x = width - min(8, width * 0.08); edges = evdev_device_mm_to_units(device, &mm); tp->palm.right_edge = edges.x; Disabled. I like how it is easy Arch allows such experiments: $ yay -G libinput $ cd libinput $ makepkg -so ==> Verifying source file signatures with gpg... libinput-1.16.4.tar.xz ... FAILED (unknown public key E23B7E70B467F0BF) ==> ERROR: One or more PGP signatures could not be verified! $ gpg --recv-key E23B7E70B467F0BF $ makepkg -so $ vim src/libinput-1.16.4/src/evdev-mt-touchpad.c $ makepkg -fei

Wow, I didn't know how easy to do these things in arch. You made my day!

Thanks for updating your answer with your diff. Arch really looks great in how easy it was to try that. I'm running Ubuntu and have experience compiling custom kernels so this should be slightly easier to try, thanks once again for such a great reply. Ultimately, I would prefer that this kind of feature is configurable in userland. Wayland's documentation page mentions that "Data from touchpads showed that almost all palm events during tying on a Lenovo T440 happened in the left-most and right-most 5% of the touchpad. The T440 series has one of the largest touchpads", and this may have been true several years ago, but it's quite common now to have larger and wider form-factor touchpads.
